Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 © Yongheng Zhang 2001 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT) is a member of the solute carrier transporter superfamily and an essential component of enterohepatic circulation. ASBT has been investigated as a vector to improve oral drug bioavailability and appreciated as a novel molecular target for cholesterol-lowering therapy. This dissertation is aimed to (I) to define the membrane topology of ASBT, and (II) to identify critical amino acid residues involved in sodium and bile acid interaction. Chapter 1 presents an overview of membrane transporters and current transporter research. This part includes a discussion on pharmaceutical relevance of transporters, transporter classification and examples to study transporter function. In the second part, a detailed literature review on ASBT is presented. In Chapter 2, experimental strategies to address Aim I are delineated. In short, /V-glycosylation sites are engineered into the strategic sites on the non­ glycosylated form of ASBT (N10D mutant) to differentiate between the two proposed topology models (7 versus 9 transmembrane domains). Results indicate that /V-glycosylation sites are successfully introduced into the strongly supporting a 7TM model for ASBT. In Chapter 3, approaches to address Aim II are described. Based on the defined membrane topology (7TM), alanine scanning mutagenesis is subsequently applied to 12 highly conserved charged residues in the extracellular domains of ASBT to generate a mutant library; expression and function ([^H]-taurocholic acid (TCA) uptake kinetics and sodium dependency) of wild-type and mutants are analyzed by western blot and uptake studies in the transiently transfected COS -1 cells; uptake inhibition studies with various naturally occurring bile acid analogues are performed to further structurally probe the transporter/substrate interaction. Results show that [^H] TCA uptake kinetics is significantly altered in a single functional mutant, D124A, which additionally has decreased affinity to other bile acid analogues containing a 7a hydroxyl group. Sodium activation kinetics indicates a decreased apparent sodium affinity for mutant R254A. In conclusion, kinetic studies of ASBT mutants reveal a probable region for bile acid recognition, Asp124 (on extracellular loop 1), and a candidate region for sodium interaction/translocation, Arg254 (on extracellular loop 3). In Chapter 4, future directions to extend this dissertation work are presented.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

    https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Slc22a2 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Slc22a2 knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6N) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Slc22a2 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_013667 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000040966 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 17. 11 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 11 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000046959). Exon 2 will be selected as target site. Cas9 and gRNA will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for KO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Mice homozygous for a knockout allele are viable and fertile and display no obvious phenotypic abnormalities. No significant defects in the renal secretion of a model organic cation are observed. Exon 2 starts from about 25.02% of the coding region. Exon 2 covers 6.27% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~104 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

  • Toxicological Profile for Nitrate and Nitrite
    NITRATE AND NITRITE 29 3. HEALTH EFFECTS 3.1 INTRODUCTION The primary purpose of this chapter is to provide public health officials, physicians, toxicologists, and other interested individuals and groups with an overall perspective on the toxicology of nitrate and nitrite. It contains descriptions and evaluations of toxicological studies and epidemiological investigations and provides conclusions, where possible, on the relevance of toxicity and toxicokinetic data to public health. A glossary and list of acronyms, abbreviations, and symbols can be found at the end of this profile. 3.2 DISCUSSION OF HEALTH EFFECTS BY ROUTE OF EXPOSURE To help public health professionals and others address the needs of persons living or working near hazardous waste sites, the information in this section is organized first by route of exposure (inhalation, oral, and dermal) and then by health effect (e.g., death, systemic, immunological, neurological, reproductive, developmental, and carcinogenic effects). These data are discussed in terms of three exposure periods: acute (14 days or less), intermediate (15–364 days), and chronic (365 days or more). Levels of significant exposure for each route and duration are presented in tables and illustrated in figures. The points in the figures showing no-observed-adverse-effect levels (NOAELs) or lowest- observed-adverse-effect levels (LOAELs) reflect the actual doses (levels of exposure) used in the studies. LOAELs have been classified into "less serious" or "serious" effects. "Serious" effects are those that evoke failure in a biological system and can lead to morbidity or mortality (e.g., acute respiratory distress or death). "Less serious" effects are those that are not expected to cause significant dysfunction or death, or those whose significance to the organism is not entirely clear.

  • Role of Membrane Transportors in Cisplatin Induced Nephrotoxicity
    Hematology & Medical Oncology Review Article ISSN: 2398-8495 Role of membrane transportors in cisplatin induced nephrotoxicity Sakshi Rajput and Gaaminepreet Singh* Department of pharmacology, ISF College of Pharmacy, Moga, Punjab, India Abstract Transporters are important mediators of specific cellular uptake and thus, not only for effects, but also for side effects, metabolism, and excretion of many drugs such as cisplatin. Cisplatin is a potent cytostatic drug, whose use is limited by its severe acute and chronic nephro-, oto-, and peripheral neurotoxicity. For this reason, other platinum derivatives, such as carboplatin and oxaliplatin, with less toxicity but still with antitumoral action have been developed. Several transporters, which are expressed on the cell membranes, have been associated with cisplatin transport across the plasma membrane and across the cell: the copper transporter 1 (Ctr1), the copper transporter 2 (Ctr2), the P-type copper-transporting ATPases ATP7A and ATP7B, the organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2), and the multidrug extrusion transporter 1 (MATE1). Some of these transporters are also able to accept other platinum derivatives as substrate. Since membrane transporters display a specific tissue distribution, they can be important molecules that mediate the entry of platinum derivatives in target and also non-target cells possibly mediating specific effects and side effects of the chemotherapeutic drug. this paper summarizes the literature on toxicities of cisplatin compared to that of carboplatin and oxaliplatin and the interaction of these platinum derivatives with membrane transporters. Abbreviation: Ctr1: Copper Transporter 1; Ctr2: Copper Trans- antitumor drugs in the world [6]. porter 2; OCT2: Organic Cation Transporter 2; MATE1: Multidrug and Cisplatin was the first platinum-based drug that revolutionized the Extrusion Transporter 1; FDA: Food and Drug Administration; DNA: treatment of neoplastic diseases.
